Founded in 1888, St. John Regional School is a private, Catholic elementary school serving students from pre-kindergarten through grade 8. Our goal is to develop students in a Faith-filled community into responsible citizens, with a strong academic foundation and a passion for learning.

A Catholic School Advantage

The goal of a Catholic education is to help children mature into moral and caring people of God. Students are encouraged to recognize the presence of Christ in themselves and others. Not all of our students are Catholic, but all share experiences of faith and values. At St. John’s, we offer:

Daily prayer and religion class

Community service both in and out of school

School Masses and prayer services

Rules of behavior that produce quiet classrooms conducive to learning the basis of the Christian principle of respecting each and every individual
